Bryce's replacement turbo arrived today. I was planning on installing it tonight and driving the car a bit.

However, I forgot that turbine housing bolt holes have to be drilled out to 10mm for BALLER INCONEL STUDS. Well, apparently the housing is made out of unobtanium stainless steel so all my drill bits failed miserably. I ended up basically grinding the holes bigger with a dremel and a fancy tungusten bit. And a hand file. Took only like 3 hours, sigh...

I got everything ready to be installed (rotated turbo, put all the lines in, made sure it seats well with the flange, etc. Installed locking hardware. And then it started to rain.... I really don't want to jack a car up in the rain and then drive 20psi on wet roads. No thanks. And I should mention that it's 3am.
